been thinking more about the kind of products & narratives will actually matter in 2026 - neobanking is a major one

within that, it will be products like @useTria - as it’s aligned with where digital finance is headed & is showing clear signs of mainstream adoption

as digital finance continues to scale, it’s becoming obvious that the real transformation won’t come from better-looking apps alone, but from changing what sits underneath them

systems that remove unnecessary intermediaries, settle faster, and give users a clearer sense of control and trust

somewhere along that shift, self-custodial models start to matter more, not because users care about the technical details, but because they naturally lead to simpler and more transparent outcomes

money that moves when you expect it to, works across borders, and doesn’t require constant workarounds

spending, holding, earning, and moving value begin to feel like part of one flow rather than separate actions

looking at the bigger picture for 2026, the products that stand out won’t be the ones explaining themselves the loudest, but the ones that feel almost invisible in daily use, because they simply work

Tria feels like it’s being built with that future in mind, and that’s why it keeps coming up when I think about what will actually last beyond the next cycle

shoutout to @parthbl & team for building with purpose - need to see more of this in web3 instead of wishful thinkers
